From the Author to the Publishers. To Messrs. TICKNOR AND FIELDS: I take advantage of the opportunity of the publication in the United States of my "Men and Women," for printing which you have liberally remunerated me, to express my earnest desire that the power of publishing in America this and every subsequent work of mine may rest exclusively with your house. PARIS, Nov. 29, 1855. I am, my dear Sirs, with high esteem, Yours faithfully, ROBERT BROWNING. |
